Calling Cards Lyrics - Rise And Fall - Madness

A sorting office in the Old Kent Road 

Caters from coast to most 

A nice little number if you're out of work 

And aren't the sort to boast, 

you're in need of a job, bob-a-job, rob-a-job 

I'm your man to see 

I'll sit I'll listen I'll not say a word 

The less said would be best for we 

Oh, what a firm of naughty boys 

Oh, I've been a naughty boy 

We don't want to mark each other's card 

Except the one you need 

I need you and your returns to help 

Build my company. 

My twins work Brighton on a sunny day 

They cover town with the shake of a hand 

On a high come back 'cause of no come back 

Now they're working in the promised land. 

Oh, what a pair of naughty boys 

Oh, I've been a naughty boy 

(The Allied Irish Cyprus Bank) 

(India Bank Bank of Turkey) 

(United Bank The People's Bank) 

(To catch the worm you got to be up early) 

Temporarily out of bounds had to move office 

Clear out of town 

For every problem there's a solution and 

I can do without constitution 

Dealing cards from up the Old Kent Road 

I've been checked up on my heavy load 

You can go but be back soon 

I'll have some work for you to groom. 

Oh, what a lot of naughty boys 

Oh, I've been a naughty boy 

(Trustees Bank, Barclays Bank) 

(The Natwest Bank, Midland Bank) 

(Bank Of Scotland, Williams and Glyns) 

(Bureau de Change, The People's Bank) 

Oh, what a lot of naughty boys 

Oh, what a pair of naughty boys 

Oh, what a firm of naughty boys 

Oh, I've been a naughty boy
